Go to the bottom of this page.

Uh.. ok.. so.. where do you send it, and what's the contract number?

Oh yeah, and is there a minimum order?

You can call the phone number at the bottom of the order page if you have questions.

I believe that our team travel coordinator called the restaurant with some questions. People on our team who want the lunches are to send their orders and checks to her, then she's going to mail all the orders together. She says, "When [our team leader] registers our team, he will also receive lunch tickets for all those who pre-ordered lunches." She also thinks that there will be a choice of soft drink or water for beverages.

I think it's done on an individual college/university/organization basis. I believe some people may already know they have received their scholarships, and others are surprised to see their names announced at Championships. If you have a question, best to call the college who is offering the scholarship and ask.

What day of the competition are the scholarship winners announced, is it like a part of the awards ceremony ?

Re: Championships for dummies
 
No, it is not announced like that. I am trying to remember - I recall it being put on the big screens when Champs were in Houston. I can't remember in Atlanta. Can anyone help me out?

Most scholarship winners are notified before Championship. If you have won, you'll receive communication from the college or university. The last few years, the scholarship winners have also been recognized during the event via a streaming list presentation similar to the event sponsors.

Re: Championships for dummies
 
Will the list of scholarship winners be posted on usfirst.org during or after the Championships? In the latter case, can some generous person please post scholarships-winners as they are announced? I'm interested in knowing who got what for a few certain scholarships...

Is there Wifi in the arena, pits or surrounding area?

Has any one ever handed out a petition for a jello based playing field in years past? Because if not I'm definitely doing it this year.

The Omni hotel at the other end of the block has wireless internet access, and I've occasionally gotten a marginal signal in the nearby food court. But any WiFi you find in the pits or the stadium is likely to be a local scouting network without an internet connection.

Bottom line: don't count on it.

Re: Championships for dummies
 
Its that time of year again,

First i would like to say congratulations to all of the other teams who have qualified this year and those who have not.

My question this year is concerning the chairmens presentations at nationals, how they work etc. I remember that judges do not travel through the pits at nats as they do at regionals and i want to know how similar the presentation is and what to expect.

thanks
Simon
